Yes we are checking email (best option) and voicemails for questions and reservation requests. Here’s a link to a previous post about our Holiday Hours:http://mycoffeeteaandtulips.com/2011/12/holiday-hours-2011-2012/ Peace –Chef We’re often asked if we have meal options for those preferring a Vegan option. Our answer is YES! We’ve also accommodated those that can not have any Gluten or Dairy and both Gluten and Dairy. Here is our response to a recent email that came through: ===== Do you offer vegan options for cream or food? Thanks, A****** Hi A******, We are very accommodating for Vegan choices. If you are referring to cream for coffee,we keep some Soy Milk on hand and do not charge extra. Otherwise,95% of our Menu is Vegetarian and most of this can easily be adjusted to be Vegan,without the lazy answer of offering Fruit or a Green Salade. For example,Roasted Veggies atop of bed of lovely Spinach with a delicious Balsamic Vinaigrette. When you come in,ask for me,The Moody Chef and I’ll gladly come out and help you with your decision…we’ll invent something if we have to. So yes,we’ll gladly accommodate you. If you know when you are coming in,let’s reserve a table for you and your group –and if possible,call me ahead and we can chat by telephone or email. Hope to see you soon.
